Description of WG 1/3
The NEMO Working Group is concerned with managing the mobility of an entire network,
viewed as a single unit, which changes its point of attachment to the Internet and thus its
reachability in the topology. The mobile network is moving as a unit, and includes one or
more mobile routers (MRs) which connect it to the global Internet.
A mobile network is assumed to be a leaf network, i.e. it will not carry transit traffic.
However,it could be multihomed, either with a single MR that has multiple attachments to the
internet, or by using multiple MRs that attach the Nemo to the Internet.
Initially, the WG will assume that none of the nodes behind the MR will be aware of the
network's mobility, thus the network's movement needs to be completely transparent to the
nodes inside the mobile network. This assumption will be made to accomodate nodes inside
the network that are not generally aware of mobility.
A basic approach for Nemo is for each Mobile Router to have a Home Agent, and use
bidirectional tunneling between the MR and HA to preserve session continuity while the MR
moves. The MR will acquire a Care-of-address from its attachment point much like what is
done for Mobile Nodes using Mobile IP. This approach allows nesting of Nemos, since each
MR will appear to its attachment point as a single node.
The WG will take a stepwise approach by standardizing some basic support based on the
bidirectional tunneling approach, and at the same time study the possible approaches and
issues with providing more optimal routing than can be had with (potentially nested)
tunneling. However, the WG is not chartered to actually standardize a solution to such route
optimization for mobile networks at this point in time.

Description of WG 2/3
 The WG will work on:
 A threat analysis and security solution for the basic problem (tunneling
between HA and MR)
 A solution to the basic problem for both IPv4 and IPv6. The solution will allow
all nodes in the mobile network to be reachable via permanent IP addresses,
as well as maintain ongoing sessions as the MR changes its point of
attachment within the topology. This will be done by maintaining a bidirectional
tunnel between the MR and its Home Agent. The WG will investigate reusing
the existing Mobile IPv6 mechanisms for the tunnel management, or extend it if
deemed necessary.
 An informational document which specifies a detailed problem statement for
route optimization and looks at various approaches to solving this problem.
This document will look into the issues and tradeoffs involved in making the
network's movement visible to some nodes, by optionally making them "NEMO
aware". The interaction between route optimization and IP routing will also be
described in this document. Furthermore, security considerations for the
various approaches will also be considered.

Description of WG 3/3
 The WG WILL:
 Ensure that solutions will scale and function for the different mobile network
configurations, without requiring changes to Correspondent Nodes in the
Internet. All solutions will aim at preserving route aggregation within the
Internet and will satisfy an acceptable level of security (a thorough survey of
new threats and an analysis of their severity will be conducted)
 Ensure that various mechanisms defined within other IETF WGs will be useful
for mobile networks. To achieve this, the NEMO WG will interact with other
WGs when needed, and may place requirements on the protocols developed
by those WGs.
 The WG WILL NOT:
 Consider routing issues inside the mobile network. Existing routing protocols
(including MANET protocols) can be used to solve these problems.

NEMO Charter: Summary
 Stepwise Approach
Basic Support
• Maintain session continuity to all MNNs
• Bidirectional tunnel between MR and HA
Extended Support
• Optimal routing between arbitrary CNs and MNNs
• Requires more investigation in the solution space

Charter: Changes since BOF at Yokohama
 The WG will first define an informal document
describing the terminology and the requirements
 Then, will propose a solution for Basic Support
 The group is not chartered to actually produce a
solution for the routing optimization problem
The WG will investigate the problem scope and potential solutions
• Not only MIP-like, but also routing protocols, etc
Output: an informational document
Then, we will decide what to do next based on this document
